Isaiah 65:19-23

19I will rejoice over Jerusalem and delight in my people. And the sound of weeping and crying will be heard in it no more.

20“No longer will babies die when only a few days old. No longer will adults die before they have lived a full life. No longer will people be considered old at one hundred! Only the cursed will die that young!

21In those days people will live in the houses they build and eat the fruit of their own vineyards.

22Unlike the past, invaders will not take their houses and confiscate their vineyards. For my people will live as long as trees, and my chosen ones will have time to enjoy their hard-won gains.

23They will not work in vain, and their children will not be doomed to misfortune. For they are people blessed by the Lord, and their children, too, will be blessed.
